Spotlight on Digital Pioneers: Mengtai Visits China’s Leading “Lighthouse Factories”
As part of the global digital strategy of our parent company, the Mengtai Group, a high-level delegation visited several of the most advanced production sites in China known as “Lighthouse Factories.”
These model factories are internationally recognized as benchmarks for smart manufacturing, automation, sustainability, and data-driven management. The trip aimed to foster knowledge exchange and transfer best practices to consistently drive forward digital transformation across the entire group, from China to Europe.
For us as an aluminum processing company, this opens up new perspectives on the future of Industry 4.0.
The insights gained from the trip are also highly relevant to the aluminum industry: the path to intelligent, resource-efficient aluminum production lies in modern manufacturing systems, smart data integration, and sustainable supply chains.
The showcased lighthouse projects demonstrate how technological progress can be successfully implemented along the entire value chain.
